Tag 5.5: Helford - Falmouth

Chop etilgan: 03.09.2023

Today we first had to get back to Helford from St Keverne. Buses don't run on Sundays. A friendly couple gave us a ride for 10 minutes, then we continued on foot for a while and finally hitchhiked to Helford.

From Helford there is a ferry across the Helford River to Helford Passage. Was quite exciting.

Then we went back out the other side along the Helford River. We took a short break in the small fishing village of Durgan.

Once back on the “real coast”, the exciting question arose: what is the view, what can you see, what happens next?

The St Anthony lighthouse was clearly visible with its whiteness, as was Dodman Point, the furthest away. In the next bay was Falmouth with its fortress of Pendennis, as well as St Mawes, which is nestled in white on the slope opposite Falmouth. And of course the St Anthony lighthouse, which marks the mouth of the River Fal (Fal-mouth).

We fortified ourselves with sandwiches, cold drinks and ice cream on Maenporth Beach. So beautiful. Sit in the shade. Splendid.

After another 5km, Swanpool Beach, which officially belongs to Falmouth, invited us for a beer. Life is Beautiful.

At the next stand we turned into Falmouth and walked through town to our accommodation, Jacobs Ladder Inn. At first we didn't think about the name... But as we walked up the enormous stairs, something became clear to us. The 111 steps have always been an attraction in Falmouth and you probably have to walk them at least once...
